Dalaran will still remain in Northrend, despite also being present in the Legion zones.

The birds have been busy tweeting away, with a number of tweets popping up concerning a few changes in the Legion Alpha and on live servers. Make sure you keep on top of the information with our latest post.

As always, most of our answers are going to be coming from the official @WarcraftDevs Twitter page, as well as a lore question being answered by @DaveKosak, one of the game designers, and an attempt at humour by Ion Hazzikostas, the lead game designer, on his page @WatcherDev.

Our first tweet is going to be looking at the age-old problem of leveling for tanks and healers. Since our artifacts are going to be "leveling" with us, these two roles need some help in regards to leveling as their desired specialisations. The developers had this to say on the topic:

Around the world of Azeroth, there are plenty of adventurers that are counting their Valor and trying to work through the complex mathematical equations that come with the currency. If we have 9 months until Legion... Carry the 4... Divide by 20... The answer is too much Valor. It looks like Blizzard might, however, implement a way for us to get rid of our excess, while solving the problem for dual-specialisation players with two legendaries.

On the topic of Maths, I'm sure that we have all sat at our computers preparing for a raid, trying to figure out how many of those irritating augment runes we need for tonight's run. If we wipe 10 times on the first boss... Another 20 here.. A wipe on trash because he's AFK again... Can't we just buff flasks instead? Blizzard have hinted at their intention to possibly re-introduce the runes in Legion.

It looks like @DaveKosak has been kept busy by an interesting continuity error between expansions concerning the timeline. Who better to bring up this issue than the wonderful... Red Shirt Guy! Isn't time travel just so irritating?

In other news, it looks like Northrend Dalaran will still be present in order to allow for teleports, either through items or spells, such as the Ring of the Kirin Tor.

Our last tweet of the post sees Ion 'Watcher' Hazzikostas attempt some fantastic "punny" humour when discussing a mix-up of the words sow and sew.
